I started reading 1st Corinthians today and in the first chapter, and a part of verse 30, it says that Christ made us right with God.  There is no more profound statement for me than that today in my life.  We must know our self and we must know that we are created in His image.  When we make decisions, we should take them all before the throne and allow his discernment to guide us.  I make a lot of decisions in my life that I base on logic or in kindness.  I do avoid maliciousness and vengeful decisions, not that I do not think about them for certain situations and people.  In the end, I know how I want to be treated and ultimately, I choose God over everyone.  I know that Christ has allowed me each breath that I take, and I no longer want to be on the sideline watching the game.  I have been in and out of the His game for a long time, but I want in for good.  I want him to be a part of everything I do and not just with me but as a conscious decision I make every day for every decision.  The truth that Christ has made us right with God means so much more than any of us will ever truly know.  That’s the beauty of Jesus, we do not need experience the death because he did.

A lot of my life I listen to the lies and whispers and they guided to battle thoughts of unworthiness.  Then God would come and place me in front of people, children, teens and adults.  It didn’t matter to Him, he would allow me the chance to share how He has worked in my life.  I want more of that in my life.  I want to show that I know that Christ has made me right with God.  I want to be the man that God made me to be and no longer the man I think I am.  The words of others mean nothing, because I know their hearts are hardened and bitter.  There will always be something in me that they want out.  Jesus says differently, and He knows my heart.  He knows that I guide my life based on him and not on any accolades.  Those things are wonderful to accomplish, and they are great to share with others, but none of them are as precious as sharing who Christ is in me.  I remember going on a mission trip and one of my best friends, my brother told me on the phone to make sure I let Christ shine through me.  I thought was an amazing thing to say and the truth was Jesus did it.  

When I have chosen Christ and had him as my first love, it wasn’t that life got easy, it was that He walked with me through the not easy.  He guided me to where I am today, and He will take you from whatever path you are on and he will hold your hand and guide you back on to His path.  He desperately wants to be with us.  He wants to be our friend, our Savior, Our Lord and Our King.  He made us RIGHT with God which means I will never, and I mean NEVER have to be crucified for the wrongs I have done.  He comes and lets me know He is not mad or upset with me, but deeply in love with His Beloved Son.  I need to live as if I am a Beloved son of the Highest God!  When life comes hard we must have faith and I believe my faith has grown.  I believe He has molded me in these recent years, even as I felt away from Him, He was there.  That truth is there for you!!  It truly is and all you must do is give Jesus a chance.  Not religion but a relationship with you and Him.  The easy way to start is to pray to Him and say Hello.  I love that in all my time of knowing Jesus I have always been able to talk to Him.  Now, it is working on learning to listen to Him and then do what He says.  I will Trust Him to be the foundation of all I am.  He will become my Idol, my reason for living the way I should and my reason for life as a Man of God.  Hold true to this my friends, Christ Has Made Us RIGHT With Our Father in Heaven! Amen and Amen!

One Love, One King, All Christ!
